Sometimes I wonder about people. A coworker/friend came to visit me to console me about this, but apparently I was rude to her because she thought I was insulting her for having parents. I wasn't and was probably just expressing how lucky I felt she was or how unfair my circumstances are. Instead of telling me, she bitched about it to one of our other coworkers and the other coworker just told me how upset she was. I'm grieving and my emotions are erratic. If I said anything rude, it wasn't intentional and she just took it the worst possible way. That makes me apprehensive to confide in friends now. They just don't understand, how could they? I have to internalize my feelings and find another outlet, I guess...

I'm sorry that happened and I don't know why if something you said bothered her she didn't just say it to you right then, let alone told other people. I know that's rough and I already have a bunch of trust issues of my own from things like that, but internalizing your emotions is the worst thing you could do.
I know it's not ideal but if you need to maybe even find someone with a degree of separation from your life that you can talk to so you don't have to worry about anything like that. Even if it's just a friend you've made on here over the years or something. Someone you trust but not necessarily someone close enough to your life that you'd really have anything to worry about. It's not as ideal as being able to talk to someone in person but it's better than just bottling it all up.
And for whatever it's worth, if you ever don't have anyone to talk to but feel like you need to I don't mind helping in any way I can just for listening, or offering any advice I'm about to. I actually have a topic about it on my board that anyone can message me if they ever need anyone to talk to. Not sure how much help I'd be though, some of the people I've talked to so far I've seemingly been more helpful with than others.
